Chicharito Hernández put on the “green” and gets on the Tricolor support boat
Chicharito Hernández did not want to pass by without showing his support for the Mexican team by dressing again in the Tricolor shirt
The all-time scoring leader of the Mexico team, Javier “Chicharito” Hernández, did not want to be left behind to show his support for the Tricolor that will debut in the 2026 World Cup on June 11 against South Africa by posing on his social media account with the famous green shirt.
Hernández posed with the new Mexico shirt, remembering his fruitful time in the national team with his famous number 14 that led him to become the best scorer in the entire history of the tricolor eleven with 52 goals and a memory of the three World Cup tournaments he attended, South Africa 2010, Brazil 2014 and Russia 2018, staying out of the 2024 World Cup due to disciplinary conflicts.
El Chicharito invoked nostalgia in his publication by acknowledging that he had not worn the national shirt for a long time, where he always sought to raise the name of the Mexican team in the competitions in which he had to participate, both in World Cup qualifiers and tournaments.
“They gave me this shirt and I got a little piece of trash in my eye :') I hadn't worn it for a long time... "Interesting!" the team's top scorer wrote in the publication.
Chicharito remains in shape and for that reason in the image he shared he looks like a player of the 26 called up by Vasco Aguirre for this World Cup, being recognized by social media users, despite the fact that he left the fields a long time ago after his failure to return to Chivas.
The former Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, West Ham United, Sevilla and LA Galaxy player continues to be fondly remembered by his most loyal followers, despite the controversy he has generated with his publications on the Internet and where more than one has told him that his mentality is very different.
Messages like: “You deserve a farewell game with the national team”, “I miss you in the national team”, “How good the national team jersey looks on you”, flooded Chicharo's publication.
Chicharito's career in the Tricolor
Hernández's legacy must be framed in success, both in Chivas, the Mexican national team and European teams, where he had a career to stand out at any level, while in the Mexican national team he played 109 games and scored 52 goals ahead of Jared Borguetti, Enrique Borja and Cuauhtémoc Blanco, in addition to the three World Cups where he scored at least one goal in all three editions.
